Human genome

Researchers added 200 million DNA base pairs and 115 protein-coding genes — but they’ve yet to entirely sequence the Y chromosome.

The Human Genome Project is completed. The project, started in 1990, identified all the 20,000 - 25,000 genes in human

Advances in technology have enabled researchers to sequence the large regions of repetitive DNA that eluded the Human Genome Project.

This picture shows the organization of chromatin including DNA's double helix structure and how DNA winds around core particles to form nucleosomes. From there, the DNA continues to wind upon its self until a chromosome is created. The function of genes in DNA is to code for the creation of proteins to be used in the body. A genome is all the genes one person has. For example, the human genome is approx. 30-35,000 genes. (Picture obtained from McGraw-Hill Connect).

2000- The attempt to sequence all human DNA

In a groundbreaking development that has sent ripples through the scientific community, researchers have made significant strides in understanding the role of i-motif DNA structures within the human genome. This discovery promises to revolutionize our comprehension of genomics and potentially unlock new avenues for medical treatments and genetic research.

Timeline of the human genome

Watson & Crick with their first DNA model at the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge.

National DNA Day was created in part to celebrate the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003. Aside from the revelation that there are about 20,500 human genes, the result of this work was an incredible resource for understanding the structure of a human being.

The gene editing system CRISPR has opened the door to new scientific advancements — and ethical concerns.

Scientists have filled in millions of missing pieces of human DNA, yielding the most complete, gapless sequence of the human genome ever produced, bar one tiny chromosome.

NATIONAL DNA DAY - April 25th. On this day in 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick formally announced their discovery of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) in a short letter published in the science journal, Nature. Today also marks the anniversary of the completion of the Human Genome Project in 2003. #ad #genealogy #DNA #nationaldnaday #dnaday
